A big problem/obstacle I used to face when starting a new project was “man! that thing has already been done by that particular person” or “This has happened before; this won’t work.” Ofcourse! Every little thing you think is worth doing has already been performed or worked upon. Mastered even by… don’t know how many. But still, you have to take your shot; you have to try it in your way.
It’s like saying, “Breathing is so ordinary; everyone breathes; what’s new in that?” Okay so don’t then or breathe like a dog, guess what? Dogs are already doing that better than you; trust me, I have tried. Don’t ask why.
So take your shot. I suggest picking up the pen, writing what you are going to do, and taking the first step for it immediately. That is the fastest way to grow.

“If I could write better than I can, perhaps I would have tried to become a novelist, and I might have become a failure. If I could draw better than I can, I might have tried to become an illustrator or an artist and would have failed there. But my entire being seems to be just right for being a cartoonist.”
Back in 1977, Schulz insisted that the cartoonist’s role was mostly to point out problems rather than trying to solve them, but there was one lesson that people could take from his work. He said: “I suppose one of the solutions is, as Charlie Brown, just to keep on trying. He never gives up. And if anybody should give up, he should.”
That’s it for this week folks! If I sounded a little harsh, please remember all advice is autobiographical. Plus it was necessary. If you are reading this, thank you! Please send a Flower Emoji to let me know you read this. B-bye!
